Best GAN 3x3?

[Bingus Ringus McDingus]

Not just Gan 12 but UV GAN 12 Maglev

Then you get around a 60% discount, lucky.

Also, where's the Mini M Pro? I tried it at a comp and I LOVED IT

I’m considering getting a UV GAN 12 Maglev. I’ve tried gan mini M pro, gan 11 air, gan 12 m leap & gan 12 maglev before and I like the gan 12 maglev the most. Never tried the gan 13 tho, but I like fast cubes and I think the speed of gan 12 maglev is just fast enough for me. Also I have kinda aggressive turning style. Should I get the UV GAN 12 Maglev? Its like $37 here, 3 times the price of GAN i Carry.

Hi, I have all three, Gan 12 is definitely my favorite (UV coated), Gan 13 is not that good for some reason but still a very good cube of course. Oh, and Gan 11 is excellent as well.

How do you think?

That’s the price before taking my GAN membership into account

Pretty smart tbh. But I usually order from SCS because its actually cheaper when shipping gets taken into account, and Americans have to pay way too much for cubes.

Not sure if you were asking me but anyway I just made quite some solves with both Gan 12 and 13, both are really excellent, but the feeling is a bit different. Gan 13 seems a little bit faster, Gan 12 seems a bit "smoother".

And then there's me, maining the Gan 356 XS.

Gan X feel wise for me

I have the 12 and 13 as well as the older XS. I must say I prefer the 13, but they are all good cubes. Too good for their differences to be significant for my poor times, at least.

I’ve just tried my frd’s UV GAN 13 yesterday and I think I like 12 the most out of all these.

I have the GAN 13 (UV), GAN 11 (frosted), and GAN Mini (UV). My favourite is actually the 53mm cube because of its size, even for two-handed, but that's probably just me. I also slightly prefer the UV coating, but I'm happy with the frosted finish too, it's not a big deal to me.

Between the standard 56mm cubes, I prefer the GAN 11 because it has a lighter turning feel. There is a small difference in weight, but I think the big difference is that more force is needed to start a turn on the GAN 13. The corner-to-core and edge-to-core magnets reeeally want the layers to stay aligned, so you have to push through it. I guess these magnets also help you finish the turn and re-align the layers, but I don't think it's necessary to the extent that the GAN 13 does. The corner-edge magnets already keep the layers aligned quite well, and the corner-cutting is very good too. I removed the corner stalks from the GAN 11 once though, and didn't like how it felt less stable, so I think the corner-to-core magnets are probably worthwhile. But the edge-to-core magnets introduced in the GAN 13 seem to be a step in the wrong direction.

I'm curious about trying the GAN 356 M or GAN 356 XS, just to see the progression. Looks like the customization features improved over the years, but what else can be improved? Surely they can't add more magnets...

Are you aware that the edge to core magnets repel on the 13? This should make turning lighter not harder.

That's not even the best WRM ƪ⁠(⁠‾⁠.⁠‾⁠“⁠)⁠┐

Just got my hands on RuiHang’s Gan 11 M Pro, where I’ve only tried the GAN 12 M Leap and GAN 13 Maglev UV Coated before, and GAN 11 M Pro is by far the best out of all these imo. Still struggling whether I should get one for myself.

I’m holding my GAN Skewb not his GAN 11 M Pro tho
